    I know Durant and Garnett are/were skinny but I don’t think they were ever THAT skinny.

    And yet teams are willing to gut their roster for the possibility of Victor Wembayama

    He's neither W nor A-B, so it's OK to draft that C in the L. [/MM]

    As long as his bones are strong don't see how he would be at any more risk than Shawn Bradley, Manute Bol, or a young KG was. Game was probably much more physical then too. I'd assume Gonzaga and Thunder medical staffs feels he is cleared, not at an significantly elevated risk, and ready. Having less weight on his joints can actually help the health of bigs. I agree in that he looks crazy skinny.

    Durant was pretty much just as skinny as Chet.

    Chet may have got bullied, but he still outplayed the guy.
